We are building a calendar of regular events including a monthly craft market, weekly knitting circle and writers club as well as art workshops and regular music jams on the weekends.

The challenge

In the face of social inequality, economic decline and environmental crisis, we need to work together to make Swindon a thriving, sustainable town.
Our vision

To build a strong, cohesive and sustainable community with wellbeing for all at its heart.
We plan to achieve this by

Facilitating accessible spaces for groups and individuals to create, meet, work, play, discuss, learn and share resources.

Empower, promote cooperation and build connections within the community to help make Swindon a better place for us all.
Progress sustainability and the environment by enabling community and environmental groups to come together to support and inspire each other.
Work to reduce or remove barriers that people may experience when using the space to ensure it is accessible, visible, inclusive and open to all.
